The Box

The Box

Life in a box
Left to taste bitter sweetness
Faith manifested in fear
Isolated dreams
Left to wither and decay

Life in a box
Stifled and alone
Humming sad tunes of misery
So dark and cold
Breathe it all in
Become the sadness
Dwindle and disappear

The trapped 'feeling' is very visceral in this. Brilliant
